Embitterment disorder and social avoidance: New link, model and behavioral therapy
Camille Lefrançois
Funds of Environmental Medicine Institute (Fonds Institut de Médecine Environnementale), Serbannnes, France.
A
few studies tend to highlight the link between three
specific disorders: embitterment disorder with or
without suicidal behavior, behavioral addiction and
avoiding behavior. This presentation exposes a new model
of understanding the dynamics regulating the disorders.
Further, the authors propose a new therapeutic method,
based on a role-playing exercise focusing on the behavior
avoided by the patient. By learning these therapeutic skills,
the patients can see their avoiding, depressive and addictive
behaviors and symptoms decrease. Several case studies and
the testimony of several years of practice are also discussed.
